Suppose $k\nmid n$ and $H$ is an $n$-vertex $k$-uniform hypergraph. A near perfect matching in $H$ is a matching of size $\lfloor n/k\rfloor$. We give a divisibility barrier construction that prevents the existence of near perfect matchings…
We determine the minimum vertex degree that ensures a perfect matching in a 3-uniform hypergraph. More precisely, suppose that H is a sufficiently large 3-uniform hypergraph whose order n is divisible by 3. If the minimum vertex degree of H…
Denote by $T_k$ the generalised triangle, a $k$-uniform hypergraph on vertex set $\{1,2,\dots,2k-1\}$ with three edges $\{1,\dots,k-1,k\}$,$\{1,\dots,k-1,k+1\}$ and $\{k,k+1,\dots,2k-1\}$. Recently, Bowtell, Kathapurkar, Morrison and…
Dirac's theorem states that any $n$-vertex graph $G$ with even integer $n$ satisfying $\delta(G) \geq n/2$ contains a perfect matching. We generalize this to $k$-uniform linear hypergraphs by proving the following. Any $n$-vertex…
In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…
Extending the notion of (random) $k$-out graphs, we consider when the $k$-out hypergraph is likely to have a perfect fractional matching. In particular, we show that for each $r$ there is a $k=k(r)$ such that the $k$-out $r$-uniform…
One of the foundational theorems of extremal graph theory is Dirac's theorem, which says that if an n-vertex graph G has minimum degree at least n/2, then G has a Hamilton cycle, and therefore a perfect matching (if n is even). Later work…
Given hypergraphs $F$ and $H$, an $F$-factor in $H$ is a set of vertex-disjoint copies of $F$ which cover all the vertices in $H$. Let $K^- _4$ denote the $3$-uniform hypergraph with $4$ vertices and $3$ edges. We show that for sufficiently…
In this paper we investigate density conditions for finding a complete $r$-uniform hypergraph $K_{r+1}^{(r)}$ on $r+1$ vertices in an $(r+1)$-partite $r$-uniform hypergraph $G$. First we prove an optimal condition in terms of the densities…
A perfect $K_r$-tiling in a graph $G$ is a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of the clique $K_r$ in $G$ covering every vertex of $G$. The famous Hajnal--Szemer\'edi theorem determines the minimum degree threshold for forcing a perfect…
For positive integers $d<k$ and $n$ divisible by $k$, let $m_{d}(k,n)$ be the minimum $d$-degree ensuring the existence of a perfect matching in a $k$-uniform hypergraph. In the graph case (where $k=2$), a classical theorem of Dirac says…
The study of asymptotic minimum degree thresholds that force matchings and tilings in hypergraphs is a lively area of research in combinatorics. A key breakthrough in this area was a result of H\`{a}n, Person and Schacht who proved that the…
Let H be an r-partite r-graph, all of whose sides have the same size n. Suppose that there exist two sides of H, each satisfying the following condition: the degree of each legal (r-1)-tuple contained in the complement of this side is…
The \textit{minimum positive co-degree} of a non-empty $r$-graph $H$, denoted $\delta_{r-1}^+(H)$, is the largest integer $k$ such that if a set $S \subset V(H)$ of size $r-1$ is contained in at least one $r$-edge of $H$, then $S$ is…
We determine the minimum degree sum of two adjacent vertices that ensures a perfect matching in a 3-graph without isolated vertex. More precisely, suppose that $H$ is a 3-uniform hypergraph whose order $n$ is sufficiently large and…
Dirac's theorem determines the sharp minimum degree threshold for graphs to contain perfect matchings and Hamiltonian cycles. There have been various attempts to generalize this theorem to hypergraphs with larger uniformity by considering…
In this paper we prove an optimal co-degrees resilience property for the binomial $k$-uniform hypergraph model $H_{n,p}^k$ with respect to perfect matchings. That is, for a sufficiently large $n$ which is divisible by $k$, and $p\geq…
Let $H$ be a $3$-partite $3$-uniform hypergraph, i.e. a $3$-uniform hypergraph such that every edge intersects every partition class in exactly one vertex, with each partition class of size $n$. We determine a Dirac-type vertex degree…
A perfect matching in a 4-uniform hypergraph is a subset of $\lfloor\frac{n}{4}\rfloor$ disjoint edges. We prove that if $H$ is a sufficiently large 4-uniform hypergraph on $n=4k$ vertices such that every vertex belongs to more than…
We study the connection between the degree sequence of a $k$-uniform hypergraph and the size of its largest matching. Let $\mathcal{F}$ be a $k$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices and let $d_1 \ge d_2 \ge \dots \ge d_n$ be the vertex…
